Systems Engineering Associates, Inc.

Our Spring 2004 edition of Systems Solutions, our quarterly newsletter is now available at the newsletters link.

This addition discusses the HSL-LTA and HSL-LTS APM Light Tester Pneumatic Reject package which eliminates the mechanical reject fingers of the APM LT-8, LT-10, LT-12, and LT-16 Light Testers. This dramatically reduces the maintenance of this machine and can allow significant increases in speed.

Also discussed is stopping cuppers and bodymakers accurately at TDC or BDC using the imbedded brake wear compensation algorithm of the cupper and bodymaker HSL packages. This can help reduce downtime on these presses by preventing them from stopping in the die set during normal and standby stops.

Systems Solutions is mailed quarterly to our customers on our newsletter mailing list. If you are not receiving a copy of "Systems Solutions" and would like to, please contact through the "Contact Us" link.
